This consistent structure across policy pages enhances user navigation through clearly defined sections and a real-time search feature, making the policy easily digestible. For mobile, sections stack vertically to maintain readability. -->\n    <!-- Visualization & Content Choices: Report Info: Shipping and Delivery Policy Text. -> Goal: Inform, clarify, and guide users through shipping procedures. -> Viz\/Presentation Method: Semantic HTML `<section>` tags for clear content segmentation. A sticky sidebar `<nav>` for quick jumps. A JavaScript-powered search bar for text highlighting. -> Interaction: 1) Smooth scrolling to sections from nav links. 2) Active navigation link highlighting based on scroll position. 3) Dynamic text highlighting for search terms. -> Justification: This interactive format transforms a static policy into an accessible and user-friendly guide, crucial for transparency and customer satisfaction regarding order fulfillment. -> Library\/Method: Tailwind CSS for layout and styling, Vanilla JavaScript for interactivity. -->\n    <!-- CONFIRMATION: NO SVG graphics used.
